Notes - Great training session.  PR set of 5 on the squat at 450.  PR set of 4 on bench at 280.  PR set of 4 on DL at 415.  PR for 5 singles in the OHP at 200.  Disappointed for sure to not get the 5th rep on the bench or DL, the DL is more frustrating, this lift is confounding me, but this was still a PR so that's cool.  Upper body lifts are going well.
